Overview
Azerbaijan — the “Land of Fire” — packs an astonishing amount into three nights from Baku, a city where medieval caravanserais sit beneath glass Flame Towers on the shore of the Caspian Sea. You’ll pair a private tour of the UNESCO-listed Old City and Zaha Hadid’s Heydar Aliyev Center with a full day in the green Gabala mountains and the surreal fire sights of the Absheron peninsula — the eternal flames of the Ateshgah temple and the ever-burning Yanardag hillside. Every transfer and tour is private, with your own guide, and return Air Arabia flights from Sharjah are included.
